  1. I really hope Jeff and Lester finally figure out what’s been going on all this time.

  2. Sounds like jeff and lester may be on to whats going on under the buymore its going to be a good one lots of fun with them two

  3. There is a ton of potential here. Imagine Casey and Gertrude together making fun of Chuck and Sarah… and back at you, lol.

  4. Yay! Gertrude’s back and leading Casey astray! South Beach? Costume speculation, anyone? 😉

    I’m starting to like the intelligent Jeff. I’m not entirely convinced, however, this will be his salvation. He had such a good backstory in Tom Sawyer and it’s nice to see the character getting to change it up a bit.

  5. Wow, with a storyline like that, you can definitely tell they are wrapping things up. Cuz we all know that if Jeff and Lester figured it out it would most likely be at the end of the series and if not they would forget the next day…lol

  6. Hi All,

    I always thought Jeff and Lester Should have been brought into the spy game – using their unique skill set – They could be tranked and brought to see “Charles Carmicheal” to do a mission for Chuck and Sarah – not knowing that they are working for them. It would be quite funny I think.

    What do people think?

    • This….. I’ve actually thought on this before. It would’ve been funny. I picture it like coming before the ring council all shrouded in darkness. Chuck disguising his voice and Lester and Jeff cowering in front of him like Dorothy & friends when they meet the great wizard of oz. Less toto of course. 😉

  7. It’ll probably refer to someone else, but I could see them joking about Casey being Gertrude’s “kept man” since her company is currently so much more successful.
